T.O.R.O.S. Information

Making your Entries Permanent:
It is very important to make your entries permanent before exiting T.O.R.O.S. Failure to so will result in cancellation of your request(s).

Co-requisites:
Some courses require concurrent enrollments in laboratory or activity sections as well as in lecture or seminar sections, or concurrent enrollment in one or more other courses. Failure to add/waitlist both or all co-requisites will result in being dropped from your original request.

Enrollment restrictions:
Some courses are restricted to students in specific degree programs, to specific class levels (e.g. seniors) or to certain student levels (e.g. graduates).

Some departments may choose not to print course reference numbers (CRN’s) in the Course Listing section of the Class Schedule in order to screen students for eligibility. Other courses may not be available through T.O.R.O.S. but may be added with the instructor’s approval.

Students who are not eligible for restricted courses may be able to obtain approval from the department in special circumstances. A signature of approval must be obtained from the appropriate department representative.

Time conflicts:
T.O.R.O.S. checks for time conflicts and will not allow registration in classes meeting at the same time. Students with permission from both instructors to enroll in classes with time conflicts will need to register in-person.

Use this printable grid to plan your classes and avoid time conflicts.

Full classes:
If you attempt to register for a class that is already full, you will be given two options:

    1) to check for open sections of the same course.
    2) to place yourself on a waitlist for the requested section.

In order to secure a seat in the class, it is recommended that you check for open sections first and register for an open section, if any. If no open sections exist, you may wish to place yourself on a waitlist for the full section of your choice.

Cancelled classes:
If you register for a course that is subsequently cancelled, you will receive written notification from the Division of Extended Education and should register for an alternate class or section as soon as possible. If you do not wish to enroll for an alternate class, you will be automatically issued a full refund for the canceled class.

Schedule adjustment/ Schedule review:
Remember, you may call back any time during the Registration period to change or review your schedule. If you choose to exchange one class for another, add the new class before dropping the other class (unless you have reached the maximum enrollment limit.)

Troubleshooting

Can’t access T.O.R.O.S.?
Check you are dialing the correct number. Are you using a true touch tone telephone? Not all push-button telephones are touchtone. Further, programmable telephones using the "#" or "*" key in programming cause access problems. Try another phone. To register while on campus, you may use the campus pay phones or the courtesy phones located throughout the campus.

T.O.R.O.S. not available?
Check date and hours of operation. If the system is not available during scheduled hours, try again later.

Busy signal?
All lines are busy: Try again later.

Made a mistake?
Do not hang up: Wait for the recorded voice to prompt you.

Not able to register for a specific course?
Check for footnotes in the course offerings sec tion. The course may:
1) be full. Select Option 4 to listen to alternate open sections or place yourself on the waitlist:
2) be a duplicate section of a course in which you are already registered;
3) have a conflict with another course in which you are already registered;
4) be restricted to certain majors, class levels or student levels;
5) require screening in the department (CRN may not be printed);
6) require one or more co- requisite sections.

Unable to get on a Waitlist?
Check to make sure course is closed. You may only waitlist for courses that are closed or that are open with existing waitlists.
